Balancing pasture utilisation with land recovery is essential for both productivity and ecological stewardship. Overgrazing depletes soil health, while underuse leaves resources idle. Kraal’s Grazing Balance feature introduces objective, data-driven control to pasture management through integrated livestock and land analytics.

The system records stocking rates, grazing durations, and carrying capacities across all paddocks. Historical data and trend analysis reveal usage patterns and recovery performance over time. Farmers can visualise land stress points, adjust rotations, and plan stocking rates that maintain vegetation balance.

This precision supports sustainable grazing systems that enhance long-term soil fertility and forage output. With grazing decisions informed by live data rather than observation alone, farmers protect their land asset while maximising herd productivity. Kraal’s technology ensures every hectare is used responsibly—turning sustainability into a measurable, profitable practice.
